You salvage an area for scrap. This could be an abandoned factory, a ruined settlement, or a crumbling research facility. The Mediator will tell you if an area can be Area Salvaged or not. It costs 1 AP for a Pilot or 1 EP in a Mech.

You craft a Mech Chassis, System, or Module. This costs a number of Scrap equal to the Salvage Value of the Mech Chassis, System, or Module. This Scrap must be of a Tech Level equal to or higher than the Mech Chassis, System, or Module. You may only craft a Mech Chassis, System, or Module of a Tech Level equal to or lower than the Crafting Bay you are working in. This will typically be the same level as your Union Crawler. You may perform this Ability as many times as you wish during Downtime, but cannot do it in the field.

You pick up and load a Mech Chassis, System, Module, or piece of Scrap in Range onto your Mech or an allied Mech. This takes up a number of Cargo Slots equal to its Salvage Value. Scrap takes up 1 Cargo Slot. Alternatively, a Pilot may use this action to pick up a Mech Chassis, System, Module, or Scrap, and carry it. Scrap takes up 3 Pilot Inventory Slots. Mech Chassis, Systems, and Modules take up a number of Inventory Slots equal to 3× their Salvage Value. This does make some things impossible for a Pilot to carry without help.

You salvage a Mech, this could be one you have found in the wastelands or just downed in combat. This roll represents you finding what is usable on the Mech as not everything on the Mech will be salvageable.

You Mount a System or Module onto a target Mech in Range. The Mech must have enough System or Module Slots to mount the new System or Module and the slots must be empty. As part of this action you may dismount any number of Systems or Modules on the Mech to make room for the new System or Module. You may not Mount a damaged System or Module onto a Mech.

You restore up to 3 + X Structure Points on a target Mech or Vehicle, where X is equal to the Tech Level of the Scrap you spend when you use this Ability. You must spend 1 Scrap of the Mech or Vehicles Tech Level or higher to use this Ability. The Mech or Vehicle must have at least 1 SP to use this Ability on it.

You repair a damaged Mech Chassis, Vehicle, System, or Module in Range to the Intact Condition. This costs an amount of Scrap equal to half its Salvage Value to a minimum of 1. This Scrap must be of a Tech Level equal to or higher than the Mech Chassis, System, or Module. For example, to repair a damaged Brawler Mech Chassis which is Tech 3 with a Salvage Value of 5 you would need to spend 2 Tech 3 Scrap.

You break down an Intact or Damaged Mech Chassis, System, Module, or Vehicle in Range into Scrap. It is destroyed. You gain an amount of Scrap equal to its Salvage Value. This Scrap has a Tech Level equal to the Mech Chassis, System, Module, or Vehicle. For example, if you Scrap a Red Laser System which has a Tech Level of 1 and a Salvage Value of 3, you gain 3 Tech 1 Scrap. You may not use this Ability on active or in use Mechs, Systems or Modules. You must use the Mech Salvage Ability to determine what you find on a Mech before using this Ability.
